Huh? Surely the news items are entries in a database of some sort, or are you implying that someone actually modifies html files directly?! Having two lists should only be a matter of having two different db queries, e.g. All news from year 2003: SELECT title, time, body FROM news WHERE time>='2003-01-01 00:00:00' AND time<'2004-01-01 00:00:00' All news from the last month: SELECT title, time, body FROM news WHERE time='NOW() - INTERVAL 1 MONTH > maybe it'd be cool to have a complete latest-first index of all news > stories in the news index page. that way, not only would it be a useful > resource but also it'd be a fixed page for people to book mark. Yes. (Well, it would be "cool" in the sense that it is "cool" that you can edit text in a text editor.) - Marcus Sundman --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
